Getting stuck on Emergency-Backup-Recovery

@rustybird Some notes offered here as feedback on the instructions you’re working on.

  • (as above) Include instructions to install xmlstarlet in same section as installing scrypt. Its not really an optional app, so deal with it first.

  • Step 2, [user@restore ~]$ read -r backup_pass
    Add: “Enter your passphrase at the prompt, then hit enter.”

  • Step 9, I don’t think the following line is very useful:

[user@restore ~]$ cat /mnt/img/home/user/your_data.txt

Arguably, its far more useful to the general user to showcase the image contents, so instead use:

[user@restore ~]$ ls /mnt/img/home/user/

Other than that, the instructions you have there are very useable and very important. Can you publish them to the Qubes website soon?
